- The Detroit Lions secondary with Terrion Arnold, Ennis Rakestraw, Brian Branch, Kerby Joseph, Carlton Davis III, Ifeatu Melifonw and more is scary good.

How do people not get it? They don't like to repeat their mistakes. They got a couple quality staters last year and then hit other needs. Then they all got injured and they had no one to step up. Now they get their starters, and if they go down, they have another group of starters ready to take the torch. Brilliance
@@robbie5010 Your comment is a mistake, besides the grammar. You will see that this year. You can't have a top defense without the talent, dudes 🗑
@robbie5010 ...... Why don't YOU try out, as a free agent, for CB or S??? how about strong safety???! (Move to Dallas or G.B.) 😂
@@robbie5010Glenn wouldn’t have been getting HC offers if we wasn’t a good Defensive Coordinator… this take is wildly off course.
@@robbie5010He was going through growing pains with a defense that had a lot of holes. By mid-season, he got the scheme down to a tee by disguising blitzes and prioritizing pressure with linebackers. The D-Line was great even with a lack of talent. Glenn has a good group to work with now and it will be fun to watch how they play
Glenn didn't have much to work with, now it's go time
I love Branch keeping his mouthpiece in his helmet. It's his swag and I dig it
Branch is one my favorite players in the team.
Don’t forget matheau betts! He’s still a great depth piece
Rakestraw is an outside corner only. He is NOT a slot, nor should not play it. He is an outside man cover corner. Arnold is the much better option at zone and slot. If they choose to send Branch to safety. He’s also the better run defender of the two.
I can't imagine Branch not playing Safety. Agree 100%
Probably the most overlooked player i believe is Mr Maybin excellent special teams example for the rookies,plus when he’s on the field there’s not too many places the football can hide from him!
Branch got three personal foul penalties last year and everyone of them was clean. He got two against Atlanta simply because he hit too hard.
I can't call them scary just yet but I believe they will be improved for sure
If they all play good thats the best corner back group in the league
@@Fam1stCEO if terrion is the next sauce an Carlton gotta stay healthy
No it’s scary!🫣
The year after this the defense will be scary
Trust me theyre scary.
I’m definitely excited to see how much the new Secondary plays
So excited!
At the uniform reveal I got a home Brian Branch jersey. I am expecting HUGE plays from him this season. Go Lions!
Pump the breaks. They gotta do it on the field
Stop hating!! Hater…
The constant being Anzalone & McNeill up the middle w/JRM & Jacobs. Definitely not a bunch of bums but please continue. Alex is the Jared Goff of Glenn's defense
Definitely not NOT a bunch of bums
Here is how I see the starting lineup. OCB's = Davis and Arnold. SLCB = Robertson, Safety's = Joseph, Branch, Melifonwu. Branch can also play slot along with Robertson at times. Rakestraw is going to be extra CB for slot or outside. Mosely is just excess CB. If he can play.
Branch is a Slot foo.. 🤦🏽♂️ Robertson is his back up
I see them moving branch to safety an ennis in the slot
we might see a surprise or two. For example, Mosley can easily beat out Arnold if he gets his legs back and become CB2. Good problem to have.
Carlton as #1 and Terrion as the #2 is crazy and hopefully Terrion and Ennis show enough throughout the season where Carlton can walk and we can have those as our future outside corners for next season with Branch in the slot, Kerby over top and Iffy blitzing from that safety spot 🔥🔥🔥🔥
my Fav VAKI 🐒🛠️🦁💙
Woot!! Stacked!!!
Ok now drop a vid for the front Dj 2,Alim McNeil , comish,Levi Martin, davenport, Houston Betts Peko Its Deeep
The dt room is for sure elite now. I hope we keep 6.
Peko is just a camp body. He isn't good and he isn't making the final 53.
Hopefully, they can also tackle much better than they have the last two seasons! That has been a major issue.
Frick the packers !
Peckers
Exactly f the packers
If you add in all of the draft picks Brad Holmes has done for the defense is 65% of the draft picks. We had a great FA for the secondary. And now first 2 picks were CBs. AG has no excuses now. He needs to get it going by game 6. No Excuses now.
I noticed you didn’t have Betts in there. Maybe he doesn’t make it tho.
Great 💙🌊🦁🛠️
Cb 2 is gonna be Arnold. We wouldn't waste a first round pick on him just to make him cb 3
Lions win bowl this season they will win 2 of next 4
Just as long as our passing D can be top 15 we will be fine. Our run D was #2 last season. It will be probably #1 this season. And if we can just not have as many injuries this season on defense we should be straight.
I have been a Lions fan for most of my life. And most of it has been a soul crushing experience. I have deeply enjoyed the last couple years but lets keep things in perspective. I HOPE their secondary is as good as it looks on paper but the truth is that neither rookie has ever stepped on an NFL field. The NFL is a different world from college. Lets be encouraged by what they've done but lets see how they perform against NFL competition before we call it one of the best secondarys in the league.
The beauty of it is is that the Lions acquired and signed CB's before the draft ......so Arnold or Rackstraw isn't ready they have guys that can step in......
Go Lions 🦁!!
I honestly think if they can get Lions at least Top 16 Secondary play, the Lions can win any game with their already good Run D, Pass Rush, Offense, and STs.
Terrion is a very complete CB prospect, I believe he'll start at CB2, I think Rakestraw has the potential to become our nickel CB, if he can we move Branch to SS fulltime and we keep Kerby at FS leaving us with Iffy as our primary backup safety. I believe Amik and Moseley won't see the field a ton and if one does it will be Amik until Terrion gets the nod. Moseley to me will be used some games if he is finally healthy and 90% of what he was in San Fran, Moseley is straight line fast and could be used if our opponents have a 4.3 burner that is problematic. Overall we are in the best spot I can remember regarding our secondary going back 30 years. We have Some good vets, young guys who already are showing good game tape, and promising rookies along with strong depth and versatility.
The no fly leagon of boom
🤫🤔🤭😂
Completely addressed a obvious weakness. too many games we allowed teams big passing yardage down field. that ends NOW, and helps your front 4 and LB's as well. 8:41
The secondary is definitely upgraded but I'm restraining my expectations. 2 of our CBa are rookies and it takes a little while for things to click for a rookie CB, sometimes it takes a couple years like it did Darius Slay, I loved when we drafted him but I knew it might take awhile to adjust. Carlton can be a good CB but he's dealt with injuries the last couple years. Amik is pretty good but he's a little small but hes dynamite in a small package. Don't forget about Mosely, I was really excited about him last year but now he really hasn't played much in a long time so it may take him awhile to knock the dust off and he may never be the same so while we have good depth, I'm not going to expect top tier play just yet but my hopes are high and I think it should be an improvement from last year
That’s not always the case some guys just have it and it would be lovely to have immediate impact from both but I think I would much rather see them coming along mid season when those games count and in the playoffs
Did you forget about Melifonwu?
no
Time will tell.
So what’s the excuse for glenn if the secondary is bad again?
Iffy and branch were the 2 best dbs in the league in impact on a percentage per snap basis statistically. And we just added 4 more dogs and got cj moore back. If f'ing stokkkked
Of course u knew lol. Ten billion points to you
branch moving to safety and er15 at slot
Damn you think Amik will be a rotational DB is crazy work my boy😂😂😂
If it was a talent issue why did they fire Aubrey Pleasant?
If defense not considerably better this year it’s time to look at replacing Aaron Glenn
Dude rakestraws calfs have biceps on them 😳 seriously wtf was that still frame? Were just not gonna talk about the side muscle on those things?!?!?!
Yeah I noticed his stabilizer muscles in his calves has some crazy definition to them.
We don’t need good they just need to be average
go take a look at davis coverage grades . i hope he is better than that if not it will be all bad again
Love your videos man, but fix your mic. Can't hear a thing
Heard everything fine on my phone speaker wdym
Why is Betts behind that no namer
Brandon joseph will be a good depth s this year is guarantee
I think you mean Kerby Joseph.
@@user-yg1jd6dt1bno he means Brandon Joseph, he’s another nickel corner/safety we have I believe he’s a UDFA
@user-yg1jd6dt1b no. I meant brandon joseph. Kerby starts. Brandon joseph is a 2nd year safety from the practice squad. What dont you understand?
No excuses this year for Aaron gleen
That’s wild 😭🤣🤣🤣 5 seconds 😭😭😭 ain’t have nothing to say about Amik is absurd work lmfao he probably has the second most turn overs on this list just a heads up you should probably go do your homework on 21 hahaa
💚 👄 3 👀 Himself 📼
Mathieu betts should be second string.
Can tell you're from the midwest from the way you say "talent" lol
Secondary ain’t enough for what they about to be witnessing in the division 😂
What the packers 4 number 3 WRs and two rookie QBs? I like Caleb and all but……
SCARY IS CORRECT . AS IN BURNT TOAST... #WEAK LINK💯
Everyone is questionable befause they are alwqys injured. What are we really talking abojt here
"Not Aaron Glenn's fault."
No. Not entirely. However, he isn't helping.
Don't know about scary good.. Arnold and rakestraw haven't played yet so their going to be growing pains and if don't win the SB or don't win the NFC championship.cant ve scary
Why are you so obsessed with the Lions? You secretly wish we were your team, huh? Sucks to be one of the 37 LA Rams fans?
@@brandonbaty2291 🤭😆 make it 39.. count the 2 Lombardi 🏆🏆...,😂.. something your city And fan Base desires,👍🦁
Dude, I normally enjoy your content but you made alot of mistakes in this one. On no planet is Moseley starting. Coaching staff has already made that very clear. Brian Branch will be starting at safety, Glenn already said they were moving him to safety. Joseph or Iffy will start at the other safety depending on who we play. Rakestraw will start in the slot, and Arnold will start outside opposite Davis. Moseley is going to end up getting cut, you dont comeback from both ACLs tearing. At the very least he wouldnt be the same player. They are giving him a shot sure but when space is needed for actually useful players like some of our UDFAs he will be gone.

If you think Rakestraw is better than Arnold you smoking something lmao! Not saying he's not a stud but naw Arnold was the number 1 corner on lions board for a reason
never said that
Man I remember when nick mullens had 396 and 412 in yards vs that defense 🤣🤣🤣🤣embarrassing
I still think we could add two more good solid safety’s with kerby and iffy
Branch is gonna play safety alot more now. Amik is gonna play nickel
that’s good to hear thanks just thought they were a little thin in that area
1:06 let’s not forget that’s against Geno f*cking Smith! Aaron Glenn is alright, but I think that he gets a pass too quickly by most. The Lions didn’t have a terrible secondary last year but you would’ve thought they were the worst ever. What’s the excuse for not being able to defend against a mobile/rushing QB?
Get outta here our secondary was the worst in the NFL, that’s not to say we don have a few good players but we lacked talent at the outside CB positions. It’s not all on Glenn. Also Geno Smith is one of the trickiest QB’s to defend against in the NFL.
R u serious???! Cam sucked. so did Harris. throw downfield on us THIS SEASON."""
talk is cheap.
we’ve seen some of them play!
Talk is all we have until the season starts. Cheap or not...
..... and, HATE is expensive. you not a fan. move to Dallas -
lol there gonna get toasted in the nfc 🤣🤣
@@joshuawilliams2447 What an idiotic thing to say 😂😂 Not only did the Lions win the division last season 😆 they also got a lot better defensively. 🤣😂🤣😂
Plus...the North this year has 2 rookie QB's and a 2nd year starter 😝😝😝😝😝😝
You're full of 💩💩💩💩 and you know it
Sorry Aaron Glenn is HORRIBLE! Jared Goff told both Dan Campbell and Glenn that he would torch the Lions Dee day one running that lame Saint's Blitz scheme. This is exactly what the entire NFL has done to Detroit last 3 years. Glenn also benches the Lions best including Malcolm Rodriguez & James Houston so Brad drafted two forcing Glenn to have to start 1 of the two rookie CBs. Aaron Glenn is why the Lions didn't win the Super Bowl last year. Glenn will probably make a good HC but he STINKS as a Def Coor.
Secondary isn't there problem it's that p brain head coach
